Comment
First mintage of 2006 2 Lari coins were struck at the Royal Mint, England. After 2006, the circulation increased several times. Coins were minted in various mints of Europe. Unfortunately, the exact number of first mintage, as well as the number of coins added at different times, as well as exact later mints, is unknown yet.So, year "2006" is frozen year on 2006 coins, as well as "1993" on previous coin family (1-50 tetri)
